Turning to Stone: 10 Haiku

1

For centuries
once a week
massaging the mummies

2

There in the mirror
my forhead rented
for advertising

3

No other way
to keep shadows off the floor
I burn down the house

4

To discover
his song, I journey
into the dragon's ear

5

Caught
in the crystal tower
birdes, rainbows, and snowstorms

6

Practicing body language
a man
with no head

7

the whole flame
is a sex organ

8

I massage
the stones. They seem
tense

9

Lake
how many clouds
has it been

10

Waking at night --
having turned to stone
I go back to sleep
